Hi,

Iceweasel displays X509 NS Comments now as raw data, just stating the
unrecognized OID:

] Certificate
] ^- Extensions
]    ^- Object Identifier (2 16 840 1 113730 1 13)
]
]    Not Critical
]    Size: ## Bytes / ### Bits
]    xx xx xx xx xx xx xx ...

This used to work before, v31 in Jessie is fine. I couldn't find the corres-
ponding source code change, so I'm just reporting the symptom, sorry.

However, I was made aware of this by people who are using Firefox v33, so I
presume this is an upstream "feature".


Best regards,
